Protein first the size of a deck of cards, then veggies, you should be full then. Don't drink with meals 30 min. prior to or after. Try to get as much protein as you can. Stay away from carbs and starches and sugars.

Don't you have a 2 month follow up appt? The surgeon's office should be giving you guidance on this.

I don't go back for 3 months. I'm just saying that I can't think of anything good to eat. I know what I am supposed to eat, just wanted some opinions on what to eat

At two months, yoghurt and cottage cheese were my staples. Also smoothies made with berries, spinach, Protein Powder. You just have to play around and figure out what works for you. eggs did not work for me. Salmon was great. Cod was not. Calf liver was awesome and went down so easily. It's so different for each person.

At 2 months out, I was allowed to eat "normal" food, but generally kept to soft foods because I was still learning what I could and could not tolerate. Soft foods=things that aren't crunchy. I don't think I had raw veggies for about 3 or 4 months.

I’ve heard about ricotta pie. Haven’t tried it but people rave about it

In the early days I would go to YouTube and type in what are you eating at 2 months or at 6 months out depending on where I was and get ideas that way. I got some great suggestions back then.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
